Abstract

In this paper, we attempt to fine-tune the CLIP (Contrastive Language-Image Pre-Training) model on the Lifelog Question Answering dataset (LLQA) to investigate retrieval performance of the fine-tuned model over the zero-shot baseline model. We train the model adopting a weight space ensembling approach using a modified loss function to take into account the differences in our dataset (LLQA) when compared with the dataset the CLIP model was originally pretrained on. We further evaluate our fine-tuned model using visual as well as multimodal queries on multiple retrieval tasks, demonstrating improved performance over the zero-shot baseline model.
